Tuesdays with Dorie members were tasked with making Tea and Honey Pots de Crème this week. Since I have not been fond of our latest tea flavored recipes I thought I would make one of Dorie’s Bonne Idee. There were three to choose from; vanilla, chocolate and caramel and I chose chocolate. As expected these…

Raisin Swirl Bread
I am on the home stretch with self isolation, just 5 days to go. The last few days I have been baking daily. We were out of bread so I decided to make a loaf. This breakfast bread sounded like something we would all enjoy. I don’t have much experience with yeast breads so I…
Cornmeal and Fruit Loaf
On Tuesdays with Dorie it is Rewind week, a recipe make-up. I am all caught up but still wanted to bake. I dusted off my copy of Baking From My Home to Yours as there are many recipes I still have not made. I had an open carton of buttermilk which is one of the…
Citrus-Currant Sunshine Muffins
I dusted off my copy of Baking From My Home to Yours by Dorie Greenspan and searched for some recipes I had yet to make. This muffin recipe caught my eye as one I wanted to bake. I checked the reviews by Steph, she liked them, and decided to make these as my recipe of…
Dorie Recipe Round-Up
Tuesdays with Dorie I had wanted to make rugelach this past holiday season so I made Friendship Cookies from Dories Cookies (page 270). I love rugelach and I love chocolate, enough said. I made this Tiramisu Cake from Baking From My Home to Yours (page 266) for my mother-in-law’s birthday. I thought it was great…

Tuesdays with Dorie Baking Chez Moi The perfect summer dessert, classic fruit tart. Made with Dorie’s flawless sweet tart dough, vanilla pastry cream and a bounty of summer berries. I glazed my berries with raspberry jam as that is what I had on hand. This was a delicious way to end a meal on a…
Tuesdays with Dorie Rewind!
I am fairly new to all of Dorie’s cookbooks and I am currently cooking my way through three of them. One of my favorites is Baking From My Home To Yours. I wish I had known about this group when you were baking your way through it, it would have been fun to participate. I…
Veal Marengo
This week on French Fridays with Dorie we are making Veal Marengo (page 264) or in my case beef marengo. This was a tasty dish and I was glad to finally get to use cipolline onions in a recipe. I have often eyed those cute little onions but have never used them. On the…
Provencal Vegetable Soup
This week on French Fridays with Dorie was provencal vegetable soup. I didn’t mind having soup in the summer because it was filled with so many fresh vegetables. Dorie says this classic dish is from the south of France. It is a soup but is almost like a stew since it is packed with so…
Devil’s Food White-Out Cake
In our house we use one candle no matter how old you are. One of my 87 year old patients told me, “you look good for 46”. I love my job:) Back to the main event, cake. I love cake and I could not wait to try this Devil’s Food White-Out cake from Dorie Greenspan….
